Section V– Servicing
! WARNING !
Do not mix different grades or types of fluid. Do not use inferior grades of
fluids. Use only QuinSyn HP if discharge air temperatures exceed 210 f for
more than 3 hours. Failure to follow these recommendations will cause
serious fluid breakdown, resulting in the information of heavy varnish and
sludge throughout the system. This will result in clogging the fluid
separators, coolers and internal fluid passages. Warranty will be voided.
Fluid Filter
The fluid filter is a spin on, full flow unit. Replacement of the filter requires spinning off the complete
cartridge and replacing it with a new one.
USE GENUINE QUINCY REPLACEMENT FILTERS ONLY.
The initial filter change should occur after the first 500 hours of operation. During normal service, the
filter cartridge should be replaced under the following conditions,
whichever occurs first
:
•
As indicated by the fluid filter maintenance indicator when the fluid is up to it’s operating
temperature.
•
Every 1,000 hours.
•
Every fluid change.
NOTE:
The fluid filter maintenance indicator may read high upon start up on cool mornings due to
sluggish fluid creating higher than normal differential pressures. Monitor indicator after the fluid
warms up.
